MAIM
From the Womb to the Tomb
Soulseller Records
9 Skulls
Sic as fuck Gore/Death Metal from Sweden that transports you back to the glory days of bands like Repugnant who would slowly peel the flesh from your body with their excruciating brand of Swedish Death Metal. Maim are a very young outfit and fairly new to the scene but already know how to churn up the chaos as evidenced by grinding tracks like “Ascending from the Grave”, “Carnal Feast” and “Ridden with Disease”. From the Womb to the Tomb is an essential addition to any Swedish Death Metal collection. Enjoy…while you still can. (DH)

And while we're at it:

THORNIUM
Mushroom Clouds and Dusk
Soulseller Records
10 Fucking Skulls
Originally swawned fully formed unto the underground scene way back in 1993, Thornium unleashed their debut album Dominions of the Eclipse, in 1995 on a small label that was also home to future legends Dimmu Borgir, Gehenna and Ulver. While those bands went on to international fame, Thornium faded into obscurity. Well, Thornium is back and lays to waste any recent output from their former labelmates with the soul-scorching descent into madness that is Mushroom Clouds and Dusk. This is dark and menacing Satanic Black Metal of the highest magnitude and only the truly faithful will survive this onslaught of terror. (DH)_________________www.soulsellerrecords.com
